Subject: (SR-NASD-00-03 and SR-NYSE-99-47) NASD Rule 2520 --UNFAIR!!!
I am writing to express my disappointment and shock at rule 2520 which
requires $25,000 in equity before day trading is permitted. This arbitrary
equity amount effectively excludes new and small traders from using the
stock market to it's fullest extent. Risks for investors are clearly stated
by US brokers; no investor can claim ignorance to the dangers of day
trading. However, the SEC asserting its presence as if it is a protective
parent of every small investor is INAPPROPRIATE.
CHANGE THIS DISCRIMINATORY RULE.
